Clean tidy rooms. Small but nice SPA area. In the city you have to go up the mountain to the hotel so you can still keep fit.

I recently ordered short ribs in port wine jus here and it was really more than very good and I can therefore highly recommend the restaurant to the hotel. Highlight.

Very pleasant and, above all, quiet hotel despite being close to the old town. You don't hear anything from your neighbors and the room itself (bathroom/bed) is also very dim.The spa was also very pleasant and you felt comfortable.The food (Sonnenstube) was incredibly delicious! Both the tapas evening and the 3-course menu.

Great wellness area, super friendly staff. Everything was clean, very nice decor. We were guests at the spa so I can't judge the rooms in the hotel but they are definitely nice.

Wow. Just the space in front of the hotel and the view from the rooms. Warm welcome, very clean rooms, delicious shampoo etc. for showering. Great quality, rich breakfast (large selection of fish). I thought the healthy muesli with nuts, seeds, berries, etc. was great. If we're in this corner again, we'll definitely be back 😊👍🏻👍🏻

We stayed at the hotel as part of an arrangement and had booked a 3-course menu. The food was ok, but my corn poulard was a bit dry. Because the vegetables were served with a sauce, I asked the waiter if I could have some more sauce. He brought a small container with about 2 spoonfuls of sauce and said there would be an additional charge for this sauce. I thought it was a joke, but the bill showed €4 for it. Because I had never experienced this before, especially not in an upscale restaurant, I asked. He said it was for the extra effort and that he went to the kitchen to do it. We paid the €4 and thought our part.

My sister and I had a wonderful stay from Friday to Sunday. The room was big enough and very well maintained. The spa area initially seemed very small to us, but in retrospect it was completely sufficient. Everything was very clean and the staff in all areas of the hotel were always very friendly and attentive. From the spa area I would particularly like to mention Antonia (foot care), Mr. Werner (dorn spine therapy) and Ludmilla and Carola (both massages).The 3-course menu on the first evening was very tasty and absolutely sufficient (unfortunately I didn't quite finish dessert). The wine recommendations were very good and absolutely appropriate. The dinner from the menu on the second evening was also very tasty. Due to the size of the portions, we skipped the starter and dessert 😉The breakfast buffet is second to none, it is very rare to find such a selection and quality.The reception was available at any time and the service left nothing to be desired.We left feeling relaxed and would love to come back!
